As the alternative badge, as supplied by Lissa seems to suggest growing things I'll prefer those as starter words, and if at all possible, I'll avoid words containing the same letter more than once.
I'll probably add a few words about my chosen starter word, or just post the solution - or not in the case that I did not succeed in solving it.
A is for Alder.
Alder catkins are letting go of their loads of pollen just now, making me sneeze and itch all over. I am planning a hank of yarn called Revenge dyed in all the spring catkins that is making me sneeze. Alder is first on my list.
And I only just made it today - PHEW
Well done. Wordle is a game I have not yet played. I love your idea of a revenge die. Hay fever is nasty.
SvarSletMy revenge dye - I look forward to doing it!
SletI will never understand wordle.
SvarSletDo not look at it as a word game, but as a subclass of MasterMind ;)
SletEgad, good luck. I'm with River. I never understood it or Sudoku puzzles. LOL!

Sudoku are just logic puzzles, I find them solvable, but boring. Wordle is like MasterMind, only challenging your inner thesausus at the same time.
SletThe words seems so random. I find it's harder to think up 5-letter words so I won't be good at Wordle.
SvarSletHave a lovely day.
Think, Words, Seems, you use 5-letter words all the time ;) Some have big spreadsheets over which words to use if ... or online resources even. I just guess, using whatever word comes to my mind, for this reason I don't get it right every day. As I do not care about maintaining streaks,. I'm fine with this.
